Meanwhile, according to Christian Daily, in the upcoming "Criminal Minds" finale, agent Aaron Hotchner will be arrested for conspiracy. The "Criminal Minds" clip featured Hotch and one of the SWAT members pointing a gun at him while ordering him to get on his knees.

Per TV Guide, Mr. Scratch will return in the "Criminal Minds" finale. The character, a terrible serial killer tortured and drugged Hotch in the previous season. This time, he will make Hotch's life as terrible as hell.

Meanwhile, Master Herald reported that the BAU team would work together to clear Hotch's name. "I don't want to say Hotch is the center of [the finale], but it has a lot to do with Hotch. It's not as visual as the first [Mr. Scratch] episode, but it's a big team episode," "Criminal Minds" showrunner Erica Messer said.

"There's not like a bomb at the end of the episode and we don't know who survived. But it's in that grander scheme of things, like, 'Oh, my God! We're just getting started,'" Messer added.

There are rumors that "Criminal Minds" season 11 will end up in a cliffhanger. Does this suggest that there should be "Criminal Minds" season 12?
